THURSDAY--See our New Office!
Yesterday the Crew stopped by our local Quality Tune Up for a lube job on the Nomad. During the course, we were informed that the Nomad needed a new belt. The whole-smole one that keeps everything operating. While we waited for the necessary servicing, the Master and Jude escaped next door to McDonald's. They set up shop at a big booth with an electrical plug in. For the price of an orange juice, they had a semi-private office.
End of story? Not quite.
This morning, we needed to get Heather baby-not to work, but before we even got to the freeway, the Nomad's new belt from yesterday slipped off the derailer and shredded to pieces. We limped back to Quality, which tested Jude's muscles because there was no power steering (which is even harder than if there hadn't of been power steering in the first place). The Baby-not called one of her friends to get her to work and the Master and Jude went to their New Office while a derailer and new belt were installed. Three hours later the Crew went on a test drive. Hopefully (Oh no! An Adverb! We sincerely hope Stephen King doesn't read this post.), this repair will last.
The up-side of this story is that the Master and Jude have found another office away from office to frequent.
